[QUOTE="tgg, post: 17693880, member: 115094"] Hi, What do you all think about corporal punishment for children? This has been discussed on another forum, but I'd be interested to know what us Australian Christians generally think to it. Conservative Christians tend to point at Proverbs 22:15 and Proverbs 23:13-14 as a means of justifying it. As a result, King Solomon's son Rehobaum became a much hated ruler and at one point he had to flee to Jerusalem to avoid being assasinated. A recent study has shown that one out of three boys develops a genetic problem that will cause him to indulge in criminal and anti-social behaviour later in life. OTOH, many Christians believe that because the Bible is the inerrant word of God, King Solomons parenting techniques were reflective of God's expectations. What do the rest of you think to this? tgg [/QUOTE]
